I paid £175 with long life oil, I would try and haggle, I just had my second sevice with brake fluid and haldex oil change , should have been £295 but they did it for £250 the day after i went in as they had no work in workshop !

Sore this problem about 10 years ago on vauxhall pattern part lower arms the rivets and welds would let go ,they were made in turkey or china ,it even made the BBC WATCH DOG program , Glad to se your ok could have been very nasty, I'd get my money back and put it towards some OE parts.

looking at the cooler,it would appear the dealer has had it apart (new hose clips) so they must be thinking the same.

Oops try this , The contamination is an oily film on top of the coolant its not as if the contamination has emulsified , the warning has been coming on for a few weeks with no other symptoms , will just have to see what dealer comes up with ,who i have to say have never let me down.

JUST HAD A 40.000 SERVICE, WITH BRAKE FLUID CHANGE AND HALDEX OIL CHANGE ,I ALL SO ASKED THE DEALER TO CHECK THE COOLANT LEVEL SENSOR AS THE WARNING LOW COOLANT KEEPS COMING ON THE MAXIDOT , I HAVE CHECK THE COOLANT BUT THE LEVEL IS OK , THE DEALER RESPONSE IS THAT THE COOLANT IS CONTAMINATED WITH WHAT THEY DON'T KNOW, THEY THINK ITS EITHER OIL OR FUEL BUT ONLY IN SMALL AMOUNTS ,THEY HAVE TOLD ME THEY HAVE SET UP A CASE WITH SKODA AND I'M TO BOOK IT IN FOR 3 DAYS FOR TESTS , THIS LEADS ME TO BE LEAVE THEY KNOW WOT IT IS, OR THAT SKODA KNOW WOT IT IS, THE DEALERS PARTING SHOT WAS IF IT NEEDS AN ENGINE ITS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, :confused: ENY ONE COME ACROSS THIS !!

the fuel tank is vented through the canister to clean the gases , I'm fairly sure that if you remove it the tank vent valve will know the system is open to the atmosphere,

your moving the of set of the wheel further from the bearing which will affect the geometry of the suspension as it moves,through its travel , i have seen bigger spacers on rally cars when set up is changed for different surfaces but this comes with different geometry , not to mention the extra load on the wheel bearings,

15mm is a lot for a spacer, don't for get wheel bolts, would be better to go for a stud conversion !!

this is a common fault on all cars , as a rule you should replace them in pears i-e 1+3 2+4 this is due to one coil being negative spark and one positive spark they both fire at the same time, one high resistance coil and one new one will over load the new one , YOU SHOULD ALL WAYS REPLACE THE SPARK PLUGS WHEN REPLACING THE COILS .

if the car drives ok and no lack of power , then its ok to continue

£175 with long life oil

i'm in if there is a group by, i under stand you can have a bluetooth kit as well ,i have a mfd 2 apart from the text not showing this should be ok ?.

The air filter case may not be closed correctly

very interesting, but does this mean you loose your multi chainger

i'v got this bar ,its for a standerd 4x4 so the ball is a little higher when fitted to a SCOUT, not a bad thing in my opinion, i got my car June 07 so not a lot of options around !

you have found the a/c condenser , and under that screw cap is a filter,don't undo it with system under pressure !

my wife has got a blakbery VM-605 this brings up caller id on radio it fantastic !

yes and i presume its on a steel wheel

Can be done with maxidot

Michelin every time, check out costco, and ats were buy 3 miche's get 4th free.

its more to do with fact that you have two different tyre sizes on the same axle , the tyres and the wheels are ok and up to the job

THANKS FOR THAT WILL GIVE THAT A GO MYSELF, AS I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF FRANCE:thumbup:

the coolant leval indicator onthe maxi dot has come on ,with a bong and a flashing symbol at the top of the maxidot ,the temp has stayed bang on 90 and the leval in the tank is ok both cooling fans running ok with or with out air con on, i have done a fault code scan and no faults presant , monatering the temp via adl plug and temp as indicated on display has any one found the leval sensor's to be faulty or a wiring isue?, insidentaly mfd2 dissplay back ground went red at the same time as the fault showing up ,

Give it time , don't over run it in , mine had done 8000 mils befor it started to loosen up and give good fuel mpg know on 32000 it pulls like a train and get 45 + mpg o and it will use oil , mine is a pd not sure wats in new ones
